March 13, 2002 - Hanover, Germany. Russian IT industry has recently enjoyed a surge in interest and activity. Silicon Taiga Program is a new Russian initiative focused on search and promotion of Russian innovative and high-tech solutions to the world market, creation of Technology Parks and IT incubators in cooperation with the Russian Academy of Sciences. Silicon Taiga Program is aimed at development of Russian innovative technologies and their promotion to the world market. For this purpose, the following steps are to be taken: to attract investments for the development of high-tech software and hardware, to create Technology Parks and laboratories, to participate in major IT and high-tech exhibitions and conferences, etc. Over the decades Russian R&D Institutes have been developing innovative and hi-tech software and hardware. These solutions attained world recognized quality, some of them were successfully applied overseas. Most of Russian high-tech solutions and ideas are unique and quite up-to-date and can be implemented in industrial capacities, high-tech companies and R&D organizations around the globe. Russian software development teams have twenty to forty years of experience in complex projects such as satellite communications systems, nuclear power stations and electrical control systems, large gas pipeline control and monitoring systems, and similar large-scale projects. None of the other major centers of software development in the world has as many qualified engineers and software developers with experience on such complex projects. The unique experience, potential and expertise accumulated over the years of high-tech software development can be realized for the development of modern, up-to-date solutions that can be competitive in the world market. Russia’s major advantage over other IT nations locales is the technical skills, R&D experience and education of its workforce. Russia has produced a number of experts in various fields throughout history. Information technology stars have earned a place next to those in software development, physics, maths and space exploration. Today, a new generation of young Russian software engineers and programmers is winning international recognition with their technical and engineering skills. Other advantages of cooperation with Russian software development companies are proximity to Western Europe and shared European culture and history enabling better cross-cultural understanding. New economic conditions have created favorable environment for further development of Russian high-tech industry. Its particular strength - well-educated, highly qualified and motivated workforce - allows Russia to become a significant player in the world IT market.
